Seriously Has/Tak, if you want my money for more fembikes, either produce the third mold of the deluxe set, or two more legends molds to combine with the one you've already released.
I don't care which is cheaper or easier for you, just stop trying to play me for a sucker.

I also have to admit that I'm slightly disappointed that they didn't do a different mold but I'm in no way surprised. This isn't a figure I was all that concerned about getting anyway once I found out that the combiner aspect was out the window. Well, at least until some customizer gets their hands on it anyways.

It is. Try looking for them at Target. Be prepared for *groan* another Sideways to go with them.

Great !!! I wish they would at least repaint Sideways another color. Who ever invented "battle damage" paint apps should be shot.

Well, I can't complain. At least this Sideways actually looks like Sideways as he did in the movie. Finally we get the black paint apps and a correct Audi R8 "blade" down the side of the vehicle. Plus, he's got the Sideswipe "slice" down the middle. They also colored most of the robot mode in grey with other color details, instead of all solid bright red.

Yea, I kind of have a pile of 'em.
I actually LIKE the repaints of SideSWIPE, they tend to look good, and with the remolds are making a nice army-builder set.
Sideways, on the other hand, goes straight to the parts bin.

Its so hard to decide which version has the most movie accurate paint scheme in robot mode given we only see him in robot mode for 5 seconds in the movie. But I dont like the "slice" in car mode. Maybe Ill just pull out the circle saw and do it right...

Not only that, but its shape and her colors make her look like a robotic Waluigi.

Naturally, since that was a good toy.

Well, I can't imagine Sideways would be made up of solid bright red parts. And there is a similar version of the new one out now in a Target 2 pack that looks almost the same but lacks the "slice" paint, and has darker robot mode clors to my knowledge. He comes with Skids and Mudflap who combine into the ice cream truck.

Whoa, not worth it. Maybe for RTS Jazz but not this.

If I remember right, there was a black repaint of it that was a Wondercon exclusive that looked gorgeous, but was ridiculously overpriced, at least on the Japanese Amazon site.
